Max Verstappen: “Baku track looks very interesting”

Max Verstappen, Dutch racing driver who competes in Formula One with Red Bull Racing, shared his views about the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Europe in Baku.

"Baku is new for everyone. You start from zero which I always like, and it's always good to discover new countries and new tracks.

"My dad has raced there back in 2012, and I've watched the races online and some parts of the track are pretty similar. He was pretty positive about the whole city in general saying it's a nice place to go so I'm looking forward to it.

"The track looks very interesting because it has such a long straight for a street circuit which will be difficult for the wing setting because on a street circuit you want lots of downforce but with such a long straight you have to find a good compromise."
